Update to A1G 2200 40 Foot Boxcar Page


 

Hi Gang,

I've made an update to the A1G page for the 2200 Series 40 Foot Boxcars... I located a 2206b State of Maine boxcar with the variant black lettering so I decided to reshoot all of the photos for the table on that page.? I think it's about time I traded the literally scanned (!) cars for digital images.? I also made the images larger in the pop-ups, since for the most part dial-up speeds are no longer an issue.

Have a look at your leisure.? One of these days I'll figure out how to allow links directly to each page!? (And shoot more replacement photos...)

Cheers,
George (your list owner)


 

Thanks George. It looks great!

Yeah, the days of dilup! It eventually got where it wouldn't even work anymore.

and just to prove i do read these groups, I prefer to use a scanner for my 'collection' as I group cars by purchase (thereby having an insurance 'factoid' that i bought a bunch); then break down that tiff graphic to individual cars on which I note purchase details. Each then filed by road# (if D&RGW) or maker then road# for all others.

Good work G,
